Hardly a summer can pass without seeing their cheerful faces gracing gardens, meadows and even highway stretches.Sunflowers have chosen us to be the recipient of their beauty and ease as they are considered the most cheery of annuals and are perhaps the easiest to grow. We gladly accept this invitation each spring as we plunge their large, pregnant seeds into our soil and await their grand entrance.When & Where to PlantIt is recommended to sow your sunflower seeds directly into your garden rather than start them in starter pots. Sunflowers send down long taproots that can be stunted in small pots, and can be especially harmful if we forget to transplant out into the garden in a timely manner (which, if we are honest, we all have done). We have had the most success directly sowing our seeds and then thinning out if need be.Sunflowers grow best in full-sun locations that are sheltered from strong winds – receiving at least 6 to 8 hours of full sun exposure per day. Once you have chosen your location, dig down to a depth of 2 inches and turn the soil over to loosen it. Though sunflowers are not finicky, they do appreciate loose, well-draining soil.How to PlantMany seeds, like poppies, need sun to germinate. This is not the case with sunflowers and in fact need to be pressed 1 inch deep into the soil. If left on the soil surface, more then likely birds will come and eat them before they ever get anywhere close to germination. Once all danger of frost has passed and both daytime and nighttime temperatures reach 55F to 60F you are ready to sow your sunflower seeds.Final spacing should be 36” apart for giant sunflowers, 24’ apart for regular-sized and 12” apart for miniature varieties.SHIPPING Your orders ship the next business date after payment via US mail.
